1 Kings 18 (WEBP)

[1] After many days, Yahweh’s word came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.”
[2] Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria.
[3] Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared Yahweh greatly;
[4] for when Jezebel cut off Yahweh’s prophets, Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
[5] Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.”
[6] So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it. Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
[7] As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?”
[8] He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’ ”
[9] He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
[10] As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they didn’t find you.
[11] Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here.” ’
[12] It will happen, as soon as I leave you, that Yahweh’s Spirit will carry you I don’t know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can’t find you, he will kill me. But I, your servant, have feared Yahweh from my youth.
[13] Wasn’t it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed Yahweh’s prophets, how I hid one hundred men of Yahweh’s prophets with fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
[14] Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here”.’ He will kill me.”
[15] Elijah said, “As Yahweh of Armies lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.”
[16] So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
[17] When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, “Is that you, you troubler of Israel?”
[18] He answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house, in that you have forsaken Yahweh’s commandments and you have followed the Baals.
[19] Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.”
[20] So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel.
[21] Elijah came near to all the people, and said, “How long will you waver between the two sides? If Yahweh is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” The people didn’t say a word.
[22] Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left as a prophet of Yahweh; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred fifty men.
[23] Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
[24] You call on the name of your god, and I will call on Yahweh’s name. The God who answers by fire, let him be God.” All the people answered, “What you say is good.”
[25] Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.”
[26] They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice, and nobody answered. They leaped about the altar which was made.
[27] At noon, Elijah mocked them, and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is deep in thought, or he has gone somewhere, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he sleeps and must be awakened.”
[28] They cried aloud, and cut themselves in their way with knives and lances until the blood gushed out on them.
[29] When midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the evening offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and nobody paid attention.
[30] Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired Yahweh’s altar that had been thrown down.
[31] Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom Yahweh’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.”
[32] With the stones he built an altar in Yahweh’s name. He made a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed.
[33] He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.”
[34] He said, “Do it a second time;” and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time;” and they did it the third time.
[35] The water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
[36] At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
[37] Hear me, Yahweh, hear me, that this people may know that you, Yahweh, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.”
[38] Then Yahweh’s fire fell and consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones, and the dust; and it licked up the water that was in the trench.
[39] When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, “Yahweh, he is God! Yahweh, he is God!”
[40] Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Don’t let one of them escape!” They seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there.
[41] Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.”
[42] So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees.
[43] He said to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” He went up and looked, then said, “There is nothing.” He said, “Go again” seven times.
[44] On the seventh time, he said, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He said, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn’t stop you.’ ”
[45] In a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
[46] Yahweh’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.

1 Kings 18:32 1 seah is about 7 liters or 1.9 gallons or 0.8 pecks

1 Kings 18 (KJVS)

[1] And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year, saying, () Go, () shew () thyself unto Ahab; and I will send () rain upon the earth.
[2] And Elijah went () to shew () himself unto Ahab. And there was a sore famine in Samaria.
[3] And Ahab called () Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly:
[4] for it was so, when Jezebel cut off () the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah took () an hundred prophets, and hid () them by fifty in a cave, and fed () them with bread and water.)
[5] And Ahab said () unto Obadiah, Go () into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find () grass to save () the horses and mules alive, () that we lose () not all the beasts.
[6] So they divided () the land between them to pass throughout () it: Ahab went () one way by himself, and Obadiah went () another way by himself.
[7] And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met () him: and he knew () him, and fell () on his face, and said, () Art thou that my lord Elijah?
[8] And he answered () him, I am: go, () tell () thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
[9] And he said, () What have I sinned, () that thou wouldest deliver () thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay () me?
[10] As the Lord thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent () to seek () thee: and when they said, () He is not there; he took an oath () of the kingdom and nation, that they found () thee not.
[11] And now thou sayest, () Go, () tell () thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
[12] And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone () from thee, that the Spirit of the Lord shall carry () thee whither I know () not; and so when I come () and tell () Ahab, and he cannot find () thee, he shall slay () me: but I thy servant fear () the Lord from my youth.
[13] Was it not told () my lord what I did () when Jezebel slew () the prophets of the Lord, how I hid () an hundred men of the Lord’s prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed () them with bread and water?
[14] And now thou sayest, () Go, () tell () thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay () me.
[15] And Elijah said, () As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, () I will surely shew () myself unto him to day.
[16] So Obadiah went () to meet () Ahab, and told () him: and Ahab went () to meet () Elijah.
[17] And it came to pass, when Ahab saw () Elijah, that Ahab said () unto him, Art thou he that troubleth () Israel?
[18] And he answered, () I have not troubled () Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that ye have forsaken () the commandments of the Lord, and thou hast followed () Baalim.
[19] Now therefore send, () and gather () to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat () at Jezebel’s table.
[20] So Ahab sent () unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together () unto mount Carmel.
[21] And Elijah came () unto all the people, and said, () How long halt () ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow () him. And the people answered () him not a word.
[22] Then said () Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain () a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
[23] Let them therefore give () us two bullocks; and let them choose () one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, () and lay () it on wood, and put () no fire under: and I will dress () the other bullock, and lay () it on wood, and put () no fire under:
[24] and call () ye on the name of your gods, and I will call () on the name of the Lord: and the God that answereth () by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered () and said, () It is well spoken.
[25] And Elijah said () unto the prophets of Baal, Choose () you one bullock for yourselves, and dress () it first; for ye are many; and call () on the name of your gods, but put () no fire under.
[26] And they took () the bullock which was given () them, and they dressed () it, and called () on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, () O Baal, hear () us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. () And they leaped () upon the altar which was made. ()
[27] And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked () them, and said, () Cry () aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. ()
[28] And they cried () aloud, and cut () themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out () upon them.
[29] And it came to pass, when midday was past, () and they prophesied () until the time of the offering () of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, () nor any that regarded.
[30] And Elijah said () unto all the people, Come near () unto me. And all the people came near () unto him. And he repaired () the altar of the Lord that was broken down. ()
[31] And Elijah took () twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the Lord came, saying, () Israel shall be thy name:
[32] and with the stones he built () an altar in the name of the Lord: and he made () a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
[33] And he put the wood in order, () and cut () the bullock in pieces, and laid () him on the wood, and said, () Fill () four barrels with water, and pour () it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.
[34] And he said, () Do it the second time. () And they did it the second time. () And he said, () Do it the third time. () And they did it the third time. ()
[35] And the water ran () round about the altar; and he filled () the trench also with water.
[36] And it came to pass at the time of the offering () of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, () and said, () Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known () this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done () all these things at thy word.
[37] Hear () me, O Lord, hear () me, that this people may know () that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart back () again.
[38] Then the fire of the Lord fell, () and consumed () the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up () the water that was in the trench.
[39] And when all the people saw () it, they fell () on their faces: and they said, () The Lord, he is the God; the Lord, he is the God.
[40] And Elijah said () unto them, Take () the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. () And they took () them: and Elijah brought them down () to the brook Kishon, and slew () them there.
[41] And Elijah said () unto Ahab, Get thee up, () eat () and drink; () for there is a sound of abundance of rain.
[42] So Ahab went up () to eat () and to drink. () And Elijah went up () to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down () upon the earth, and put () his face between his knees,
[43] and said () to his servant, Go up () now, look () toward the sea. And he went up, () and looked, () and said, () There is nothing. And he said, () Go again () seven times.
[44] And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, () Behold, there ariseth () a little cloud out of the sea, like a man’s hand. And he said, () Go up, () say () unto Ahab, Prepare () thy chariot, and get thee down, () that the rain stop () thee not.
[45] And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black () with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, () and went () to Jezreel.
[46] And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he girded up () his loins, and ran () before Ahab to the entrance () of Jezreel.

[1] και εγενετο μεθ ημερας πολλας και ρημα κυριου εγενετο προς ηλιου εν τω ενιαυτω τω τριτω λεγων πορευθητι και οφθητι τω αχααβ και δωσω υετον επι προσωπον της γης
[2] και επορευθη ηλιου του οφθηναι τω αχααβ και η λιμος κραταια εν σαμαρεια
[3] και εκαλεσεν αχααβ τον αβδιου τον οικονομον και αβδιου ην φοβουμενος τον κυριον σφοδρα
[4] και εγενετο εν τω τυπτειν την ιεζαβελ τους προφητας κυριου και ελαβεν αβδιου εκατον ανδρας προφητας και εκρυψεν αυτους κατα πεντηκοντα εν σπηλαιω και διετρεφεν αυτους εν αρτω και υδατι
[5] και ειπεν αχααβ προς αβδιου δευρο και διελθωμεν επι την γην επι πηγας των υδατων και επι χειμαρρους εαν πως ευρωμεν βοτανην και περιποιησωμεθα ιππους και ημιονους και ουκ εξολοθρευθησονται απο των κτηνων
[6] και εμερισαν εαυτοις την οδον του διελθειν αυτην αχααβ επορευθη εν οδω μια μονος και αβδιου επορευθη εν οδω αλλη μονος
[7] και ην αβδιου εν τη οδω μονος και ηλθεν ηλιου εις συναντησιν αυτου μονος και αβδιου εσπευσεν και επεσεν επι προσωπον αυτου και ειπεν ει συ ει αυτος κυριε μου ηλιου
[8] και ειπεν ηλιου αυτω εγω πορευου λεγε τω κυριω σου ιδου ηλιου
[9] και ειπεν αβδιου τι ημαρτηκα οτι διδως τον δουλον σου εις χειρα αχααβ του θανατωσαι με
[10] ζη κυριος ο θεος σου ει εστιν εθνος η βασιλεια ου ουκ απεσταλκεν ο κυριος μου ζητειν σε και ειπον ουκ εστιν και ενεπρησεν την βασιλειαν και τας χωρας αυτης οτι ουχ ευρηκεν σε
[11] και νυν συ λεγεις πορευου αναγγελλε τω κυριω σου ιδου ηλιου
[12] και εσται εαν εγω απελθω απο σου και πνευμα κυριου αρει σε εις γην ην ουκ οιδα και εισελευσομαι απαγγειλαι τω αχααβ και αποκτενει με και ο δουλος σου εστιν φοβουμενος τον κυριον εκ νεοτητος αυτου
[13] η ουκ απηγγελη σοι τω κυριω μου οια πεποιηκα εν τω αποκτεινειν ιεζαβελ τους προφητας κυριου και εκρυψα απο των προφητων κυριου εκατον ανδρας ανα πεντηκοντα εν σπηλαιω και εθρεψα εν αρτοις και υδατι
[14] και νυν συ λεγεις μοι πορευου λεγε τω κυριω σου ιδου ηλιου και αποκτενει με
[15] και ειπεν ηλιου ζη κυριος των δυναμεων ω παρεστην ενωπιον αυτου οτι σημερον οφθησομαι αυτω
[16] και επορευθη αβδιου εις συναντην τω αχααβ και απηγγειλεν αυτω και εξεδραμεν αχααβ και επορευθη εις συναντησιν ηλιου
[17] και εγενετο ως ειδεν αχααβ τον ηλιου και ειπεν αχααβ προς ηλιου ει συ ει αυτος ο διαστρεφων τον ισραηλ
[18] και ειπεν ηλιου ου διαστρεφω τον ισραηλ οτι αλλ η συ και ο οικος του πατρος σου εν τω καταλιμπανειν υμας τον κυριον θεον υμων και επορευθης οπισω των βααλιμ
[19] και νυν αποστειλον συναθροισον προς με παντα ισραηλ εις ορος το καρμηλιον και τους προφητας της αισχυνης τετρακοσιους και πεντηκοντα και τους προφητας των αλσων τετρακοσιους εσθιοντας τραπεζαν ιεζαβελ
[20] και απεστειλεν αχααβ εις παντα ισραηλ και επισυνηγαγεν παντας τους προφητας εις ορος το καρμηλιον
[21] και προσηγαγεν ηλιου προς παντας και ειπεν αυτοις ηλιου εως ποτε υμεις χωλανειτε επ αμφοτεραις ταις ιγνυαις ει εστιν κυριος ο θεος πορευεσθε οπισω αυτου ει δε ο βααλ αυτος πορευεσθε οπισω αυτου και ουκ απεκριθη ο λαος λογον
[22] και ειπεν ηλιου προς τον λαον εγω υπολελειμμαι προφητης του κυριου μονωτατος και οι προφηται του βααλ τετρακοσιοι και πεντηκοντα ανδρες και οι προφηται του αλσους τετρακοσιοι
[23] δοτωσαν ημιν δυο βοας και εκλεξασθωσαν εαυτοις τον ενα και μελισατωσαν και επιθετωσαν επι των ξυλων και πυρ μη επιθετωσαν και εγω ποιησω τον βουν τον αλλον και πυρ ου μη επιθω
[24] και βοατε εν ονοματι θεων υμων και εγω επικαλεσομαι εν ονοματι κυριου του θεου μου και εσται ο θεος ος εαν επακουση εν πυρι ουτος θεος και απεκριθησαν πας ο λαος και ειπον καλον το ρημα ο ελαλησας
[25] και ειπεν ηλιου τοις προφηταις της αισχυνης εκλεξασθε εαυτοις τον μοσχον τον ενα και ποιησατε πρωτοι οτι πολλοι υμεις και επικαλεσασθε εν ονοματι θεου υμων και πυρ μη επιθητε
[26] και ελαβον τον μοσχον και εποιησαν και επεκαλουντο εν ονοματι του βααλ εκ πρωιθεν εως μεσημβριας και ειπον επακουσον ημων ο βααλ επακουσον ημων και ουκ ην φωνη και ουκ ην ακροασις και διετρεχον επι του θυσιαστηριου ου εποιησαν
[27] και εγενετο μεσημβρια και εμυκτηρισεν αυτους ηλιου ο θεσβιτης και ειπεν επικαλεισθε εν φωνη μεγαλη οτι θεος εστιν οτι αδολεσχια αυτω εστιν και αμα μηποτε χρηματιζει αυτος η μηποτε καθευδει αυτος και εξαναστησεται
[28] και επεκαλουντο εν φωνη μεγαλη και κατετεμνοντο κατα τον εθισμον αυτων εν μαχαιραις και σειρομασταις εως εκχυσεως αιματος επ αυτους
[29] και επροφητευον εως ου παρηλθεν το δειλινον και εγενετο ως ο καιρος του αναβηναι την θυσιαν και ουκ ην φωνη και ελαλησεν ηλιου ο θεσβιτης προς τους προφητας των προσοχθισματων λεγων μεταστητε απο του νυν και εγω ποιησω το ολοκαυτωμα μου και μετεστησαν και απηλθον
[30] και ειπεν ηλιου προς τον λαον προσαγαγετε προς με και προσηγαγεν πας ο λαος προς αυτον
[31] και ελαβεν ηλιου δωδεκα λιθους κατ αριθμον φυλων του ισραηλ ως ελαλησεν κυριος προς αυτον λεγων ισραηλ εσται το ονομα σου
[32] και ωκοδομησεν τους λιθους εν ονοματι κυριου και ιασατο το θυσιαστηριον το κατεσκαμμενον και εποιησεν θααλα χωρουσαν δυο μετρητας σπερματος κυκλοθεν του θυσιαστηριου
[33] και εστοιβασεν τας σχιδακας επι το θυσιαστηριον ο εποιησεν και εμελισεν το ολοκαυτωμα και επεθηκεν επι τας σχιδακας και εστοιβασεν επι το θυσιαστηριον
[34] και ειπεν λαβετε μοι τεσσαρας υδριας υδατος και επιχεετε επι το ολοκαυτωμα και επι τας σχιδακας και εποιησαν ουτως και ειπεν δευτερωσατε και εδευτερωσαν και ειπεν τρισσωσατε και ετρισσευσαν
[35] και διεπορευετο το υδωρ κυκλω του θυσιαστηριου και την θααλα επλησαν υδατος
[36] και ανεβοησεν ηλιου εις τον ουρανον και ειπεν κυριε ο θεος αβρααμ και ισαακ και ισραηλ επακουσον μου κυριε επακουσον μου σημερον εν πυρι και γνωτωσαν πας ο λαος ουτος οτι συ ει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ καγω δουλος σου και δια σε πεποιηκα τα εργα ταυτα
[37] επακουσον μου κυριε επακουσον μου εν πυρι και γνωτω ο λαος ουτος οτι συ ει κυριος ο θεος και συ εστρεψας την καρδιαν του λαου τουτου οπισω
[38] και επεσεν πυρ παρα κυριου εκ του ουρανου και κατεφαγεν το ολοκαυτωμα και τας σχιδακας και το υδωρ το εν τη θααλα και τους λιθους και τον χουν εξελιξεν το πυρ
[39] και επεσεν πας ο λαος επι προσωπον αυτων και ειπον αληθως κυριος εστιν ο θεος αυτος ο θεος
[40] και ειπεν ηλιου προς τον λαον συλλαβετε τους προφητας του βααλ μηθεις σωθητω εξ αυτων και συνελαβον αυτους και καταγει αυτους ηλιου εις τον χειμαρρουν κισων και εσφαξεν αυτους εκει
[41] και ειπεν ηλιου τω αχααβ αναβηθι και φαγε και πιε οτι φωνη των ποδων του υετου
[42] και ανεβη αχααβ του φαγειν και πιειν και ηλιου ανεβη επι τον καρμηλον και εκυψεν επι την γην και εθηκεν το προσωπον εαυτου ανα μεσον των γονατων εαυτου
[43] και ειπεν τω παιδαριω αυτου αναβηθι και επιβλεψον οδον της θαλασσης και επεβλεψεν το παιδαριον και ειπεν ουκ εστιν ουθεν και ειπεν ηλιου και συ επιστρεψον επτακι και επεστρεψεν το παιδαριον επτακι
[44] και εγενετο εν τω εβδομω και ιδου νεφελη μικρα ως ιχνος ανδρος αναγουσα υδωρ και ειπεν αναβηθι και ειπον τω αχααβ ζευξον το αρμα σου και καταβηθι μη καταλαβη σε ο υετος
[45] και εγενετο εως ωδε και ωδε και ο ουρανος συνεσκοτασεν νεφελαις και πνευματι και εγενετο υετος μεγας και εκλαιεν και επορευετο αχααβ εις ιεζραελ
[46] και χειρ κυριου επι τον ηλιου και συνεσφιγξεν την οσφυν αυτου και ετρεχεν εμπροσθεν αχααβ εως ιεζραελ
